After some hassle I've managed to get these decks, I'm getting a couple more in the next couple of weeks, probably the most difficult deck to find any information on. Here are some photos I took, they are produced by Carta Mundi for Ted Baker, the only info I could find about these on the net was a flourishing video that was done by Chris Webber back in 2010, here's the link, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPpP69j-IHo The cards Chris is using are also Ted Baker cards produced by Carta Mundi and have a smooth finish and sharper edges than most decks, this is what my decks are like. I called Ted Baker to ask for any info on them but all they could tell me is that they were produced and given away free a number of years ago.

Some people wont like the design but I really do, the smooth finish feels like Aladdins but they clump together more easily, I tried fanning powder but dont like it so I'm playing with them alot to get rid of it. As you can probably tell the edges are sharp and so using them for flourishing is kind of painful at times but Chris said he broke them in alot so that's what I'll do. Here's are some photos then.............

p.s, isn't that box awesome?

Yeah not a huge fan of that deck. The backs are interesting though. I like that style of design. It's strange to see cards that don't have rounded edges.

Lol, I guess it's an aquired taste, these are truly a gem. I wouldn't have bought 4 if they weren't. Really nice cards at a cheap price. You have to get used to the edges though, ouch :-[ :-[

They are very similar to the smooth finish Ohio Aladdins but thinner, I would say if your into magic just stick with bikes or whatever you like as these aren't special in that department but they are great for cardistry, well so far, check out the link I posted, Chris is using the same deck with a different back, they hold together extremely well. Carta mundi produce them and I've only really used their Caesars palace deck (which I love) but these feel great also, some people prefer uspcc and I do to but these imo were a great find.
